I, Olaf Modeen remember this place well. Many the fights have I fought here. The celebrations, the disappointments... Bein' on top is great while it lasts, BEWARE. But how many friends do you have now? Up 'n down. Up 'n down. Rankings always change. Up 'n down. I think I'm gonna be... Well, TROUBLEMAKERS' 1st moved them up to 3-2-0 place. SKYLINE's walking tall now that they went 5-0-0 their first time out. But we know what awaits them soon... What's with ATAVISTA? She actually beat NOBLISH ISLAND's DANGEROUS CRIMINAL, and walked away with 14 more points from the fight. I'm sure NOBLISH ISLAND is excited about ATAVISTA, the new Duelmaster from TROUBLEMAKERS. (remember?) But when you've seen as many as I have... Wouldn't it be nice to have live subjects to practice on? I hear some team is looking into the uses of convicted prisoners. No matter the time or place, men will always duel. Warriors of NOBLISH ISLAND unite. You have only your games to lose! Is it my imagination, or are fighters getting younger every day? To die so young, so gloriously! Who knows what the future holds for a warrior. More fights, there's no doubt. Are you as tired of reading this as I am of writing it? Actually, I guess I'm writing it before you read it. Oh, well. I don't want to overstay my welcome...-- Olaf Modeen DUELMASTER W L K POINTS TEAM NAME ATAVISTA 11465 5 4 0 47 TROUBLEMAKERS (1958) CHALLENGER INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME -OVERDO 11483 4 3 0 31 BASH BROS PROJECT (1960) -BORING 11485 4 2 0 27 BASH BROS PROJECT (1960) -HARD WORK 11484 5 2 0 26 BASH BROS PROJECT (1960) BARBELA BLOODSTONE 11467 3 6 0 24 TROUBLEMAKERS (1958) -SHIELDER 11336 3 3 0 24 JJKIER (1935) INITIATES W L K POINTS TEAM NAME BATTLESHIP KATE 11490 2 4 0 22 TROUBLEMAKERS (1958) -SCOPE CREEP 11487 5 2 0 20 BASH BROS PROJECT (1960) IRON MCGINTY 11489 2 4 0 16 TROUBLEMAKERS (1958) -SIR JERRY 11379 1 0 0 15 COMEDY KNIGHT (1943) -SIR PRYSIN 11382 1 0 0 14 COMEDY KNIGHT (1943) CUMULO NIMBUS 11506 1 0 0 13 SKYLINE (1962) MOUNTAIN 11502 1 0 0 13 SKYLINE (1962) -DAME MAIM 11381 1 0 0 13 COMEDY KNIGHT (1943) -SIR RENITEE 11378 1 0 1 12 COMEDY KNIGHT (1943) ARCH 11503 1 0 0 11 SKYLINE (1962) -KATANA 11273 2 2 0 10 GOTHIC HORRORS (1926) -BLOWER 11334 2 4 0 10 JJKIER (1935) -BEAST 11275 2 4 0 10 GOTHIC HORRORS (1926) -SIR CULL 11380 1 0 0 10 COMEDY KNIGHT (1943) -BASHER 11338 1 5 0 8 JJKIER (1935) SKYSCRAPER 11505 1 0 0 7 SKYLINE (1962) TREE 11504 1 0 0 5 SKYLINE (1962) -RAIN 7935 1 1 0 4 MINIONS OF MAGIDA (1370) AFNORD FORGETHIM 11501 0 3 0 3 TROUBLEMAKERS (1958) -SOPHIEA 11274 0 1 0 1 GOTHIC HORRORS (1926) '-' denotes a warrior who did not fight this turn.

YEEEAHGgghatem *spasm, gurgle, thud, twitch* -- Whiting, mgr Troublemakers Good day, fellow survivors. We're inviting everybody to Guldarn's Inn and Outhouse for free drinks at sunset (walk to the South end of the wharf, turn inland, and follow the smell). Those coins that rolled out of Whiting's pockets when he collapsed turned out to have some real gold in them, and we'd like to trade our (and his) hospitality in exchange for whatever advice you have on how we can keep whatever this is going. Battlehip Kate read Explorer's and Assur's word in the last newsletter to us and thinks we could find out what the "C.I.C." stands for, what "ADM" stands for, whether Barbela Bloodstone is defective and should just be replaced. Also, what's to do in the Chat site does not accept our password and will not send us a security code when we make a new one? It's lonely when the only time we can meet you all is when we beat the not out of each other. Bottom's Up. -- The Troublemakers (except Barbela, she's too busy singing and flirting to join in writing this) CIC on the way. -- RSI LAST WEEK'S FIGHTS BARBELA BLOODSTONE slimly lost to AMBITIOUS GUARD in a crowd pleasing 1 minute fight. ATAVISTA subdued DANGEROUS CRIMINAL in a 1 minute brutal Title melee. IRON MCGINTY overpowered CONVICTED THIEF in a 1 minute mismatched duel. BATTLESHIP KATE bested OSKSI NOBLE in a slow 5 minute fight. AFNORD FORGETHIM was subdued by SKYSCRAPER in a 1 minute amateur's competition. MOUNTAIN vanquished CONVICTED THIEF in a 1 minute mismatched fight. ARCH beat PERSISTANT BEGGAR in a 2 minute amateur's brawl. TREE outlasted CONVICTED THIEF in a crowd boring 8 minute beginner's melee. CUMULO NIMBUS vanquished CONVICTED THIEF in a 1 minute one-sided duel.
